COLUMBUS (WCMH) – Ohio State junior quarterback J.T. Barrett is one of 30 quarterbacks named to the watch list for the Davey O’Brien Award.
The award is presented annually to the best quarterback in collegiate football.
Entering his junior year, Barrett needs only 13 touchdown passes to set an Ohio State career record.
The record is currently held by Bobby Hoying at 57.
Fifth in the Heisman Trophy voting as a freshman in 2014 when he led Ohio State to an 11-1 record and to the Big Ten championship game, Barrett was 4-1 as a starter last season with season-capping wins over Michigan, 42-13, and Notre Dame, 44-28 in the BattleFrog Fiesta Bowl.
